Parts and function of the triple beam balance?

Answer 1

The triple beam balance consists of three beams: a middle beam with a pointer, a front beam with a rider, and a rear beam with a rider. The middle beam is the main beam and is calibrated in grams. The front and rear beams are used to fine-tune the measurement by moving their riders along the notched scales. The triple beam balance is used to measure the mass of an object by comparing it to known masses on the three beams.

Answer 2

The triple beam balance consists of a base, three beams (each with a rider and pointer), and a pan for placing the object to be weighed. The beams are calibrated to provide measurements in grams with high precision. The function of the triple beam balance is to accurately measure the mass of an object by comparing the weight of the object to known weights on the beams.

Answer 3

There are many parts to this triple-beam balance scale....there is the Balance pan were you put the object you are measuring then the riders and the beams and the riders ride on the beams then the zero then the arm the pointer end the base the fulcrum and the tare but it is used to adjust the pointer that points to the zero and that is all.

Answer 4

1. Platform - Samples to be weighed are placed here

2. Balace cup - This part is under the platform and contains metal slugs used to adjust the scale's balance

3. Zero Adjustment Knob - Used to make minor adjustments to zero / balance the scale

4. Knives and Bearings - These are the pivot points for the beam assembly and are critical to minimizing friction and maintaining accuracy

5. Poises - These are the sliding weights used to balance the device

6. Beam Assembly - This part supports the balance cup, platform, and poises and is where readings are taken

7. Damper Vane - This is a piece of metal that hangs off of the pointer end of the beam. It is positioned between small stabilizing magnets inside the trig loop.

8. Trig Loop and Magnets - This is the end part of the triple beam where the pointer terminates and where the zero point is marked. Small magnets are placed inside the trig loop and help bring the beam to a stop quicker.

9. Pointer - Used to determine when the triple beam is balanced

10. Hanging Counterweights (optional) - Used to increase the capacity of the scale

-------------------------

Weighing Pan- used for holding standard or unknown masses on a scale

Level indicator or Pointer- used to indicate the correct mass of an object if it is leveled with the indicator.

Base- used to hold or support the entire beam.

Beam- used to support the weights

Meter scale- used to calibrate the instrument.

Adjustment Poise/ Rider- used as adjuster to get the precise mass of an object.

Answer 6

it is use to measure the mass of an object.

Answer 7

It measures mass (weight) using progressively smaller analog increments.

Answer 8

A triple beam balance measures the mass of objects in grams

Answer 9

grams
